A second of what could be a series of local scenes with people. This is our friend J who is often seen on her way to one of her many jobs carrying everything she may possibly need. Plus all the stuff she didn't unpack from the last one. Such is life...
My method in these has been to do some very quick notes in situ, and then try and make the picture from memory based on those original notes. This frees me from being too beholden to reality in the composition. I then go back and check for any glaring omissions or things I've added that aren't there. With this one I had remembered six upper floor windows when there are five.
Same thing with J. I turned a corner and saw her coming towards me. The drawing was then based on the "snapshot" I took in my mind.
